In some instances, things like physical attractiveness and beauty can, if relevant to the situation, act as &quot;arguments&quot;. <br /> <br />In fact, this point is what was used in defense of ELM and its dual route model cousin HSM from the proposal of a more parsimonious &quot;Unimodel&quot; as proposed by Kruglanski and Thompson.Joehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09751791523570821896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4479538808563159535.post-17919822061615648012008-04-07T09:51:00.000-07:002008-04-07T09:51:00.000-07:00whoa - where were you when i was taking prelims at...whoa - where were you when i was taking prelims at the uw-madison, 1993. love it, love it, love it.Suzannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10946069546893591946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4479538808563159535.post-71814161843840878662008-01-13T07:26:00.000-08:002008-01-13T07:26:00.000-08:00Your ability to come up with these rhymes continue...Your ability to come up with these rhymes continues to amaze. One caveat: Central route processing generally, but does not always, lead to more "rational" processing. Biased elaboration can occur whereby people selectively scrutinize (say) counterattitudinal information more than proattitudinal information.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4479538808563159535.post-40230553273138997092007-08-23T08:52:00.000-07:002007-08-23T08:52:00.000-07:00Good questions.

I try to have some musical accompaniment, although a backup band is slightly outside of my department's budget. :)<BR/><BR/>If I have a CD that contains the song, I play it at a low volume. That way, the music comes through and I/we can sing over the original lyrics (sort of like karaoke).<BR/><BR/>Increasingly, you can find video clips of song performances on YouTube.com or video.google.com, so those can also be used to provide the accompaniment.<BR/><BR/>If you're concerned about whether students will know the tune well enough to sing along, you can just play the CD or online video clip (alone) first, to familiarize the students.<BR/><BR/>The above steps should facilitate students' singing along, but sometimes you still may end up singing solo.alanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08047057328265529252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4479538808563159535.post-83978329046421932312007-08-23T05:24:00.000-07:002007-08-23T05:24:00.000-07:00These songs are great!

Do you have a backup band or do you sing a Capella?Mariannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14219370510624854504noreply@blogger.com
